($39): There are a plethora of Pinot Noir clones, each of which produces grapes with slightly different characteristics.  Although the Dijon clone originated in Burgundy, this wine emphasizes the ripe, fruit-driven style of Pinot Noir rather than the savory component often found there.  Quite glossy, it is not overdone and conveys pure cherry-like flavors.  The name of the clone notwithstanding, it’s a lovely example of New World Pinot Noir. 88 Michael Apstein Apr 6, 2010
